On route to your home planet, your ship unexpectedly breaks out of hyperspace and you find yourself forced to land on a nearby moon in an unexplored star system. Now you must find a way to leave the star system and go home.

Explore your surroundings using your ship and on foot, just make sure to watch your health and oxygen levels. Find refueling stations to refuel your ship. Watch out for meteor showers, hostile drones and dangerous plant life. By finding and unlocking mysterious warp gates, you can travel between the 7 planets in the system. Some have alien life on them and maybe, one of the planets hold the answer to how to get you home.

Cratered is a single-player, open-world exploration game with a distinct illustrative style. Players can travel between planets in the star system and land on them. It's played in first-person while on foot and in third-person when flying your space ship.

The player is able to use tools to dig into the surface. Meteor storms, explosions and ship collisions affect the terrain and makes craters on the surface. Using the mini-map, the player can find hidden items buried under the surface. Some planets have creatures that burrows underground.
